The West Side Brewing Braille Ale is a new offering from the Cincinnati-based brewery that is positioned as a refreshing beer with an accessible profile. The beer features a label on the can that has been finished with Braille thanks to a partnership with the Cincinnati Association for the Blind & Visually Impaired and special equipment to print the raised lettering. The final product is a beer can that can be read both visually and through touch to make it one of the more accessible options on the market.
The West Side Brewing Braille Ale is a raspberry gose that has been brewed with the brewery's signature sour beer along with ample raspberries to make it a refreshing option to pick up starting August 27.
